-f $request_filename

Server NGINX

Hello,

Got something like this, but the break seams to not work,
and the file is being processed by the php fastcgi process.

Any clue why?

location / {
if (-f $request_filename) {
root /vhosts/default/test;
break;
}

 try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
 fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/spawn-fcgi.sock;
 fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
 fastcgi_param APPLICATION_TYPE $app_type;
 fastcgi_param APP_LANG $app_lang;
 fastcgi_param SERVER_TYPE $server_type;
 fastcgi_param ENVIRONMENT test;
 include fastcgi_params;

}

Wow. I wonder what you are trying to achieve…

When requesting http://domain.tld/sitemap.xml the request should
got to the fastcgi process, because that needs to be generated from
application.

But when requesting other xml files it should use the files;

A generic method:

location / {
root /vhosts/default/test;
try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
}

location @fallback {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/spawn-fcgi.sock;
…
}

Or always pass XML to fastcgi:

location / {
root /vhosts/default/test;
}

location ~ .xml$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/spawn-fcgi.sock;
…
}

probably because no index was defined and autoindex is disabled.

This seems to work, just one question.
The fastcgi application is Zend based, but i get an

403 forbiddened when try_files is:
$uri $uri/ @fallback

when i set it up to:
$uri @fallback

it seems to work, why is that?

When you request “/”, “try_files $uri/” founds that there is
a directory “/vhosts/default/test/” and nginx uses “location /”
for handling the request. Then the directive “index” tries to
find its default value “index.html”. If it can not find it, this leads
to 403.

Probably, you need

location / {
root /vhosts/default/test;
try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
index index.php;
}
